  1. What is parameterization? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Apr 25, 2015 · Parametrization is... the process of finding parametric equations of a curve, a surface, or, more generally, a manifold or a variety, defined by an implicit equation.

  2. continuity - Is there a rigorous definition of parametrization ...

    Feb 6, 2025 · Is there a rigorous definition of parametrization? From what I can see, there is no absolute definition of parametrization, but simply a set of ideals that try to come to as close as possible: A

  3. Parametrization of a line - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 15, 2011 · The point is that parametrization helped you solve a system of equations that would normally be very difficult or impossible to solve explicitly.

  4. Parametric form of square - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 17, 2014 · A parametrization of a straight line from P to Q is r(t) = tP + (1 − t)Q as t goes from 0 to 1. Four of these pieces with suitable start and stop values for t will take you round the square for t going …

  5. How to tell whether a curve has a regular parametrization?

    Jul 20, 2015 · and this second parametrization is regular because its velocity anywhere is at least 1. So, my question is: given a non-regular parametrization of a curve, is there an algorithm to tell whether …

  6. How to parameterize an ellipse? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jul 15, 2018 · Other answers are correct, shortest explanation: set x=0 in your equation to see the y intercept is sqrt (2), not 1.

  7. Parametrizing an algebraic curve - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 30, 2021 · The parametrization doesn't need to be injective as long as it only ever maps finitely many points together. My best attempt to construct a parametrization would be to construct smooth …

  8. real analysis - How to parametrize a curve by its arc length ...

    Arc length parametrization just means unit speed parametrization. The former is used for some dumb historical reasons, I think the latter is far clearer.

  9. How can I parametrize a paraboloid using two or one parameter?

    Apr 13, 2005 · This parametrization would give us a different set of points on the paraboloid, but they would still lie on the same surface. It is important to note that there are many possible ways to …

  10. algebraic geometry - Find the rational parametrization of this curve ...

    Jun 5, 2021 · 5 I need to find the rational parametrization of the complex curve with affine equation y2 − 6x2y − 3x4 + 4x3y + 4x3 = 0. y 2 6 x 2 y 3 x 4 + 4 x 3 y + 4 x 3 = 0. I did find a solution, I don't know …
